The following provides a description of the server's entire directory structure.
In Linux, all directories will be found in the "/opt/webpdf" installation directory.
In Windows, the "/conf", "/keystore", "/logs", and "/temp" folders will be found in "C:\ProgramData\webPDF". All other folders will be found in the installation folder.
|
Deleting or renaming directories may cause server malfunctions or complete server failures/crashes. Changing the content of files may also cause server malfunctions or failures/crashes. |
The "conf/" and "keystore/" folders contain the configuration data for the server. This configuration data should be backed up on a regular basis. The "*.vmoptions" (in Windows) and "webpdf.sh" or "webpdf.service" (in Linux) files may contain custom settings, and accordingly should be backed up as well.
The "logs/" and "temp/" directories contain the server’s working data. The working data in "temp/" can be deleted if necessary (if the server is not being run). The "logs/" folder can also be deleted (if you want to keep the logs, you can back up this folder on a regular basis).
